Question 1043690: The number of emails you sent can be modelled by the equation
u = 20×(1.8)^e,
where u is the total number of emails sent, and e is the number of
months since you started sending emails, where 0≤ e ≤ 8.
1 - find the month in which the exponential model predicts that the total
number of emails sent will first reach 500?
2 - Write down the value of the scale factor for the exponential
model. Use this to find the percentage increase in the total
number of emails sent?

------
I'll use t for the # of months.
Also, use * (Shift 8) for multiply. x is often used elsewhere.
-------
u = 20*(1.8)^t

1 - find the month in which the exponential model predicts that the total
number of emails sent will first reach 500?
500 = 20*(1.8)^t
25 = 1.8^t
log(25) = t*log(1.8)
t = log(25)/log(1.8)
t =~ 5.48 months
--> the 5th month

model. Use this to find the percentage increase in the total
number of emails sent?
Increase from when to when?
